Default How to fix door mirror? *UPDATE with PICS*

Anyone know a how to fix on the door mirror?

The base of mine is attached to the door just fine, but part that attaches to that... with the cable inside is somewhat detached from the base. So the mirror is all wobbly. It's all still attached but... hrm... anyone get what I'm saying?

I don't have my camera handy...

Are you saying the base of the mirror wobbles on the outside of the door, or is it that where the cable attaches inside that wobbles? Do you have a black rubber pad between the mirror and the door, and are your screws big enough so you can tighten down the mirror on the door? It's been awhile since I had my mirror out, so I can't remember how the cable attaches. A pic would be good.

Ok here are some pics... is it just tightening up the screws? Do I have to take the door panel off to do that?

Yes, you need to remove the door panel and then the mirror. There are screws under the mirror mount that hold the top part in place.
